Half Dozen Brass Band
Now you've gotta love the Half Dozen Brass Band! With practically no vocals, this swing band played Athfest on pure talent. I had the pleasure of seeing them take the stage for a few songs with Betsy Franck last Athfest, but hearing their own set was simply brilliant. When they announced that they were going to play a tune tribute to the Jackson 5, though, I have to admit I was skeptical. How can anybody perform a cover of the Jackson 5 without lyrics? The way they did it nearly blew me away! As they played, their instruments spoke like voices, no vocals necessary. Way cool, indeed.
